Please support me in my efforts to raise funds as part of the Vinnies CEO Sleepout.
There are currently 122,494 people in Australia without a home. Most people who experience homelessness rely on their cars, couch surfing or temporary, unstable housing for shelter and many sleep rough.
Vinnies provides immediate relief to people, like food and crisis accommodation, while working on long-term solutions to secure permanent safe housing. Funds also support healthcare, education, employment, and many more critical support services for those facing homelessness, things we take for granted.
For one night I will be trying to make a small contribution by sleeping outside to raise awareness and funds for Vinnies.
Please support me by donating generously. Any amount however small will be appreciated.
So far this year I helped provide
